This Small Town Restaurant Serves The Best Desserts In Delaware

Delaware is full of delicious bakeries, candy shops, and diners that make tempting pies and other desserts. To find the best little bakery in the state, though, head down to the small town of Milton, near Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge. Here, in a town with just about 2,500 residents, you'll find one of the state's best kept secrets. The Backyard is a cozy restaurant that's dedicated to having a good time and making the best desserts in Delaware.

The Backyard is located at 211 Broadkill Rd, Milton, DE 19968

In the summer, The Backyard is known for the lawn games and outdoor fun that can be had right in, well, their backyard.

In the cooler months, Delwareans flock to the restaurant for hearty breakfasts to warm them up.

The Backyard is known for making delicious, farm fresh meals - like these fried green tomatoes.

For lunch, their sandwiches like this one with sautéed vegetables, olive tapenade and goat cheese are always delicious.

They make elegant meals, as well, for delicious dinners that you won't soon forget.

Where the Backyard really shines, though, is in their bakery, where they've perfected every sweet treat you could want.

Their Nutella-stuffed french toast is a favorite of the breakfast crowd...

Or, you could start your day with a cranberry orange muffin!

These Pink Lemonade Cupcakes were made with Dogfishhead "Sixty One" and Syrah for an unforgettable treat to celebrate the DFH Anniversary.

You won't find any boring desserts here! Their samoa cake tastes like an even better version of the famous cookies that we crave all year long.

I've tried about fifteen different Backyard desserts, though, and I don't think anything beats the rich, delicious Dr. Pepper Cake.

Whatever your sweet tooth craves, you'll find it here! Head down to Milton this winter and try the best desserts in Delaware - it's so worth the drive.

There's no question that the Backyard's homemade desserts are some of the best you'll ever find, and the fact that you can pair them with a delicious meal is just, well, icing on the cake!
